WHO FROM CANADA HAS BEEN ON MY BLOG?

Say "AI"

OPEN HOUSE BLOGSPOT TO LAUNCH SEPTEMBER 8

I will begin posting graphic designs and T-shirt artwork onto a separate blog, at atelieropenhouse.blogspot.com. The blog is set-up and ready to go, but it wont begin until September 8...which is my birthday. This blog will have the occasional graphic, but from now on it will be primarily focused on my fashion designs.

Cool.

Thanks.

Spring 2012: Jesus Under The Sea

I have a general idea of what I will be designing for Spring 2012. Naturally, I don't have a clue as to what will be in season then, since I don't have access to anything. But I'll be looking to three things for help: Hercules & Love Affair, the ocean and Jesus. Expect something retro, disco, exotic, and yet tame and religious.

Burberry Pumpkins...

My best friend Nathalie and I were carving pumpkins a couple of months ago. We decided that we were too classy for jack-o-lanterns or spider webs, so we made designer pumpkins. We made Chanel, YSL and Louis Vuitton pumpkins (monogrammed and logo), but our most successful pumpkin was out Burberry pumpkin.

I miss Nathalie. She's going to be even further away from me when she moves to Paris at the end of this month. Lucky bitch.


Blast from the past; "Hunter" Fall/Winter 2008

This is one of my favourite looks, and also a signature thing of mine. I frequently incorporate centre seams and inter-locking and weaving swirls. Of course, this was the first outfit I designed with this characteristic.

From the "Hunter" Collection, F/W 2008.
